Okinawan Funakoshi chinte (mariti) as practised in the way usually seen in Funakoshi karate, and the way shown in Mutsu Mizuho's 1933 book, Karate Kenpo. The former can also be found in Mabuni Shito-ryu, for example, while the latter can also be seen in Kyudokan Shorin-ryu karate, for instance. There are, as always, varying ways of performing the kata, just as there are multiple versions.
The Funakoshi Okinawan Karate Kenpo Kenkyukai (Research Society & Study Group) is dedicated to studying and researching, in particular, Master Gichin Funakoshi's Okinawan Shorin-ryu karate kenpo teachings. For authoritativeness, Master Gichin Funakoshi's old Okinawan karate, his later developed karate, Master Gigo Funakoshi's karate, the developments of Shoto-kai, & every other karate kenpo lineage, are all considered.
